From a detailed study, including polarization dependence, of the normal state angle-resolved photoemission spectra for Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_8$, we find only one CuO$_2$ band related feature. All other spectral features can be ascribed either to umklapps from the superlattice or to ``shadow bands. Even though the dispersion of the peaks looks like band theory, the lineshape is anomalously broad and no evidence is found for bilayer splitting. We argue that the ``dip feature in the spectrum below $T_c$ arises not from bilayer splitting, but rather from many body effects.

The effects of structural supermodulation with the period $lambda approx26$ AA along the $b$-axis of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ have been observed in photoemission studies from the early days as the presence of diffraction replicas of the int
rinsic electronic structure. Although predicted to affect the electronic structure of the Cu-O plane, the influence of supermodulation potential on Cu-O electrons has never been observed in photoemission. In the present study, we clearly see, for the first time, the effects on the Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ electronic structure - we observe a hybridization of the intrinsic bands with the supermodulation replica bands in the form of avoided crossings and a corresponding reconstruction of the Fermi surface. We estimate the hybridization gap, $2Delta_hsim25$ meV in the slightly underdoped samples. The hybridization weakens with doping and the anti-crossing can no longer be resolved in strongly overdoped samples. In contrast, the shadow replica, shifted by $(pi, pi)$, is found not to hybridize with the original bands within our detection limits.
Low temperature thermal conductivity, $kappa$, of optimally-doped Bi2212 was studied before and after the introduction of point defects by electron irradiation. The amplitude of the linear component of $kappa$ remains unchanged, confirming the univer
sal nature of heat transport by zero-energy quasiparticles. The induced decrease in the absolute value of $kappa$ at finite temperatures allows us to resolve a nonuniversal term in $kappa$ due to conduction by finite-energy quasiparticles. The magnitude of this term provides an estimate of the quasiparticle lifetime at subkelvin temperatures.
Bi-based cuprate superconductors are important materials for both fundamental research and applications. As in other cuprates, the superconducting phase in the Bi compounds lies close to an antiferromagnetic phase. Our density functional theory calcu
lations based on the strongly-constrained-and-appropriately-normed (SCAN) exchange correlation functional in Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ reveal the persistence of magnetic moments on the copper ions for oxygen concentrations ranging from the pristine phase to the optimally hole-doped compound. We also find the existence of ferrimagnetic solutions in the heavily doped compounds, which are expected to suppress superconductivity.
We find that peaks in the autocorrelation of angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy data of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ in the superconducting state show dispersive behavior for binding energies smaller than the maximum superconducting energ
y gap. For higher energies, though, a striking anomalous dispersion is observed that is a consequence of the interaction of the electrons with collective excitations. In contrast, in the pseudogap phase, we only observe dispersionless behavior for the autocorrelation peaks. The implications of our findings in regards to Fourier transformed scanning tunneling spectroscopy data are discussed.
A magnetic field applied to type-II superconductors introduces quantized vortices that locally quench superconductivity, providing a unique opportunity to investigate electronic orders that may compete with superconductivity. This is especially true
in cuprate superconductors in which mutual relationships among superconductivity, pseudogap, and broken-spatial-symmetry states have attracted much attention. Here we observe energy and momentum dependent bipartite electronic superstructures in the vortex core of Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ using spectroscopic-imaging scanning tunneling microscopy (SI-STM). In the low-energy range where the nodal Bogoliubov quasiparticles are well-defined, we show that the quasiparticle scattering off vortices generates the electronic superstructure known as vortex checkerboard. In the high-energy region where the pseudogap develops, vortices amplify the broken-spatial-symmetry patterns that preexist in zero field. These data reveal canonical d-wave superconductivity near the node, yet competition between superconductivity and broken-spatial-symmetry states near the antinode.
